Koper’s Canada Road Trip
haha!
I have lived/worked at (in order) Heavenly, Banff/Canmore, Thredbo, Winter Park, (London, UK) and now Perisher. Besides my stints in SYD.
I’m not sure of the name of where I’m staying lol.. everything has ‘Inns of Banff’ written on it and ‘Banff Lodging Co.’ lol. I’ll Check tomorrow when I walk out the front haha.. 
The awesome part of being on a tour. 
Oh yes!! I love being a planner and an organiser but there is something so joyus about just following the leader/showing up!
My Japan trip is so sorted its not funny! I just follow like a sheep! And love it!
Well I’ve been a bit lazy and stuff and I’ll get a few more photos up of Banff, Sunshine and Lake Louise when I get home. (Yes, when I get home, It’s been 2 weeks already..)
Anyway, since I last posted, we rode Sunshine, which was really fun 15cm of fresh the night before we rode, did a few laps through the park, did a bit of hiking which was awesome. Got some awesome first turns in.
The next day we went to Lake Louise. The snow wasn’t the best so we didn’t really check much of the mountain out. Just rode park all day which was pretty sick. I didn’t take any photos but got a heap of GoPro footage.
After LL it was our last night in Banff so we had a bit of a big night.. We were meant to ride Mt Norquay the next day but I wasn’t quite up for it. 
Neither were a few of the other guys, so we just cruised around Banff. Bit of sight seeing and all that, tried to play some Curling at the Fairmont Hotel in Banff lol. Some of the crew did ride and a few others went dog sledding. Dog sledding looked pretty cool.. definitely do that next time.
Today (which is technically now yesterday anyway) we left Banff and drove to Calgary for the end of the trip. It’s been an amazing trip had an awesome group of people and would definitely do it again! Probably longer next time as well.. 2 weeks just isn’t enough haha. 
Only bad thing is that I have to leave tomorrow/today
Sounds like you had a great trip! Looking forward to seeing all your footage!
Well here are a few more pics, slowly working on an edit for some of my GoPro footage.
Powering to the top of our hike at Sunshine with some Trail Mix lol..
Another at Sunshine, just near the Goats Eye chair.
Banff Springs Fairmont Hotel.
Another one.
Mothertrucker. lol.
Last night in Banff, these and $3 Jager Bombs meant I didn’t ride Mt Norquay
The cure.
Frozen waterfall! 
And it’s all over! 
The lift pass thing is a cool way to remember the trip!!!!!
Great read, Koper!!!!! Still doesn’t let ya off the hook for not sayin howdy in Whistler though!!!!! 
Yeah 3 days in Whistler just wasn’t enough.. actually 2 weeks in Canada wasn’t even enough lol.
Yeah, we did the whole two weeks in Whistler, and that was nowhere near enough time either!!!!!
So, where was ya pick?????
Really tough to pick, had heaps of fun at every mountain, they were all so different. Kicking Horse for the whole ‘Big Mountain’ kinda feel, mad steep runs etc. Whistler/Blackcomb had the best park, so much park! Heaps of room for progression, not that Whistler/Blackcomb doesn’t have big/steep sections, but KH was some next level shit for me lol. Had a mad day at Sunshine as well, coz we got some fresh turns in.
Sweet!!!!!
Yeah, Warren Chapstick reckoned Kickin was a highlight for him too!!!!!
I’ve got a Kicking Horse Spanky and T-Shirt - that’s as close as I’ve come to getting there! 
My friend said it was awesome!!
